This is a day for ex-Lotus employees to get together and catch up with each other etc. It's a ticket only event for ex-staff only but... As Kimbers has already mentioned, they are amassing one of each Lotus factory produced road car for the day. The collection is looking great but but they're still looking for excellent examples of the Carlton and M100. If you are available and can take your car along to a day to remember, please let me know ASAP and I'll put you in touch with the right people. Thanks

Anyone fancy a runout on Sunday 23rd May weather permitting? Get those COVID cobwebs blown away! Get those cars running again. Meet at McDonalds at the top of A11. Bit of a tour (Route to be decided but thought over to Swaffham, upto Fakenham, Holt, Cromer and down again) but open to suggestions. Find somewhere for a late breakfast or early lunch By then somewhere with indoor seating should be possible. I thought meet 8:30 for set off at 9am. Any takers?

does anyone know if the factory have anything planned in the next couple of years?.......I'm missing the mass get togethers........it could be due to missing out on everything this year.....but I do like a good Lotus meet with old mates over a few beers, somewhere in Norfolk......lol I'll start the excuses...... In 1961 a Lotus won its 1st F1 GP in the hands of Sir Stirling Moss (wasnt the factory team but hey thats no matter)......that'd make 2021 the 60th anniversary 45th anniversary of the Esprit
